[PATCH RFC net-next 0/4] net: page_pool: a couple assorted optimizations

Here's spin off the IAVF PP series[0], with 2 runtime (hotpath) and 1
compile-time optimizations. They're based and tested on top of the
hybrid PP allocation series[1], but don't require it to work and
in general independent of it and each other.

Per-patch breakdown:
 #1: already was on the lists, but this time it's done the other way, the
     one that Alex Duyck proposed during the review of the previous series.
     Slightly reduce amount of C preprocessing by stopping including
     <net/page_pool.h> to <linux/skbuff.h> (which is included in the
     half of the kernel sources). Especially useful with the abovementioned
     series applied, as it makes page_pool.h heavier;
 #2: don't call to DMA sync externals when they won't do anything anyway
     by doing some heuristics a bit earlier (when allocating a new page),
     also was on the lists;
 #3: new, prereq to #4. Add NAPI state flag, which would indicate
     napi->poll() is running right now, so that napi->list_owner would
     point to the CPU where it's being run, not just scheduled;
 #4: new. In addition to recycling skb PP pages directly when @napi_safe
     is set, check for the flag from #3, which will mean the same if
     ->list_owner is pointing to us. This allows to use direct recycling
     anytime we're inside a NAPI polling loop or GRO stuff going right
     after it, covering way more cases than is right now.

Alexander Lobakin (4):
  net: skbuff: don't include <net/page_pool.h> to <linux/skbuff.h>
  net: page_pool: avoid calling no-op externals when possible
  net: add flag to indicate NAPI/GRO is running right now
  net: skbuff: always recycle PP pages directly when inside a NAPI loop

Really curious about #3. Implementing the idea correctly (this or other
way) potentially unblocks a lot more interesting stuff (besides #4).
